Well, here we are excavating exercise 27 over at The Sandbox Writing Challenge. This weeks one, for me is an emotional one. I remember it well from my first dig. The prompt this week is…….
If you were to give this baby (child) something you lacked early in life, what would it be?
Unconditional Love. And Protection. Period.
As an adult in my middle 50’s it’s still hard for me to wrap my head around it. The realization that your own parents don’t love and accept you unconditionally and failed at protecting you, is a hard pill to swallow, but swallow it I did. It took time, but I learned to accept it. In accepting it, I learned to forgive them. I have made peace within myself, knowing I was then, as I am now, worthy of their love. The fact that they can’t or don’t know how falls on them. Because they are my parents, I can say I do love them irregardless……………I’m also going back and ‘stealing’ what I wrote the last time. I know I said I wasn’t going to look back, but what I wrote then remains true today.
Dear Little One
I promise you protection,
To keep the monsters at bay.
Not hand you over to them,
Turning a blind eye all the way……
I promise you All my love,
Unconditionally,
Unequivocally,
You have my heart
I promise to hold you close,
Never will I push you away.
I want you in my life you see,
Because you are a part of me…..
I promise no comparisons,
Instead, embracing all
That makes you, YOU….
I promise to listen,
To hear what you have to say.
Not turning a deaf ear,
And walking away…..
I promise to encourage you,
To be there for you,
Because you Are Worthwhile….
Never to be thrown away
Onto the garbage pile

Over at The Sandbox, for week 26 we’re asked the following…it’s actual a two-fer if we’re so inclined to dig along!!
What makes life magical?
What would your perfectly magical day be like?
*******************************************************
Im combining the two cause that just how I roll…..
To answer the first question, “What makes life magical?” My response at this moment in my life was being and spending time with Jim. The magical moments of my life were moments, that when added up, equate to 14 years of a magical journey with the man I love.
Magic was meeting someone, who for all intent and purposes, was NOT my idea of who I would or should be with.
Magic was that first, unexpected kiss. Magic was the torrential rainstorm we got caught up in after our wedding. Magic was that amazing blanket of comfortable silence that wrapped us when we were together.
Magic was packing our bags and moving to another state with $400 in our pockets, no jobs but lots of dreams.
Magic was living out that dream, by the beach
Magic was all those mimosa sunrises we were blessed to witness together.
Magic was living as much of a lifetime as we could in the time we were allotted.
My Magic was and Is Loving Jim.
As for the second question, “What would your perfectly magical day be like?”
My Perfect Day would be to spend just one more day with Jim, on the beach, from sun up till sun down. Mimosas in the morning, cooking breakfast on the Coleman stove set out on the tailgate of our truck. Fishing lines casted out. The beach entirely to ourselves. A skinny dip. Talking, laughing, loving.
Raw oysters and beer in the late afternoon…long walk on the beach talking and reminiscing. More laughing, more loving.
Sun is setting…cuddled up around a small fire on the beach. I’m breathing in his scent knowing he has to go back. No words need to be spoken now. Tears do begin to silently fall, he brushes mine away, I brush his away. And then, my Magical Day slips away into the darkness, riding the waves to eternity. All the while We Know. Our Love is Forever. ❤
